I can't spot anything wrong, thought I'd argue this commit message
belongs with the actual reference counting to come later since a lot of
the history is with bugs found there.

This patch is simply introducing context refcounting interfaces and
replacing explicit destruction with unreferencing (and in all cases
there should be no functional impact).

So bring on the real request reference counting now!
